چکیده
Manuscript Received 8-August-2012 and revised 5-October-2012 ISSN: 2322-3936 Accepted on 1November-2012 Abstract— This paper concerns two-hop communication over relayassisted Block fading channel. It is assumed there is not a direct link between the transmitter and the affiliated destination and the communication occurs in two hops through the use of a relay, where the amplify and forward (AF) strategy is employed at this node. In this case, in a Rayleigh block fading channel, the optimal weight function at the relay in terms of maximizing the received signal to noise ratio (SNR) at the destination is derived, assuming the relay is aware of channel gains associated with both hops and that the relay is subject to an average power constraint. Finally, the resulting SNR is compared to the case of having a peak power constraint at the relay which is served as a benchmark throughout the simulations.

متن کاملSum-Rate Maximization Based on Power Constraints for Cooperative AF Relay Networks
In this paper, our objective is maximizing total sum-rate subject to power constraints on total relay transmit power or individual relay powers, for amplify-and-forward single-antenna relay-based wireless communication networks. We derive a closed-form solution for the total power constraint optimization problem and show that the individual relay power constraints optimization problem is a quad...
متن کاملEnhancing the Efficiency of Constrained Dual-hop Variable-gain AF Relaying under Nakagami-m Fading
This paper studies power allocation for performance constrained dual-hop variable-gain amplify-and-forward (AF) relay networks in Nakagami-m fading. In this context, the performance constraint is formulated as a constraint on the end-to-end signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) and the overall power consumed is minimized while maintaining this constraint. This problem is considered under two different as...
متن کاملImpact of antenna correlation on the performance of partial relay selection
Antenna correlation is generally viewed as an obstacle to realize the desired performance of a wireless system. In this article, we investigate the performance of partial relay selection in the presence of antenna correlation. We consider both channel state information (csi)-assisted and fixed gain amplify-and-forward (AF) relay schemes. The source and the destination are equipped with multiple...
متن کاملPower Allocation In Cooperative Relay Channels
This paper concerns power allocation in relay-assisted wireless channels for two-hop transmission. First, the transmitter sends the information to both the relay and receiver parts. Next, in the second hop, the transmitter cooperates with the relay to increase the received signal to noise ratio (SNR), assuming the relay makes use of the Amplify and Forward (AF) strategy. Moreover, it is assumed...
